摘要
讨论了混频器IIP2对于零中频接收机的重要性,对导致CMOS双平衡Gilbert混频器IIP2下降的因素进行了系统而深入的分析。在考虑电路的不匹配性和寄身参数的情况下,介绍了多种提高混频器IIP2的方法。同时,提出了一种鲁棒性非常好,并且适合低电源电压应用的高IIP2混频器结构:"交流耦合"混频器。该电路采用CMOS 90 nm工艺实现。仿真结果显示,该混频器可达到92 dBm的IIP2和9 dB的电压转换增益,在1.2 V电源电压下,功耗为9.6 mW。
The importance of the mixer IIP2 to zero-IF receivers was discussed, and an in-depth analysis of the 2nd-order intermodulation distortion mechanism in DCR mixers was presented. Methods and innovative circuits were introduced to improve degradation of the mixer IIP2 due to device mismatches and nonlinearity. Finally, an "AC coupling mixer" was proposed as a very robust way to increase mixer IIP2, which is suitable for low-voltage zero-IF receivers. The mixer was implemented in CMOS 90 nm technology. Simulation results indicated an IIP2 of 92 dBm and a voltage gain of 9 dB. Operating at 1.2 V supply voltage, the circuit consumes 9. 6 mW of power.
